Our Approach
Our Hotels, Tourism and Leisure Division provides a range of industry related services to local, national and international clients.
We have been at the forefront of a number of exciting developments in Northern Ireland and have developed a reputation as highly skilled and informed industry advisors.
Our links with Horwath International, a network of 400 offices in 80 countries, enables us to monitor industry developments and trends on a global scale.
On an annual basis, we publish the Ireland and Northern Ireland Hotel Industry Survey. This is the only detailed assessment of hotel performance on the island of Ireland and it is used by industry practitioners, government departments and agencies, and tourism development bodies as a key benchmark tool.
The survey provides an in depth analysis of hotel performance at three levels, including hotel size, star grade and location.
